Who Feels Guiltier: You Or Your Man?

Say one of you forgets to pick up the other's desperately-needed dry cleaning when you're at the place anyway. Or one of you says something mean. Or (hypothetical here!) one of you cheats. Who do you think would feel worse about the situation? Chances are, you, according to a new study. Research from the Spanish Journal of Psychology found that women experience stronger feelings of guilt than men do. In non-shocking news, men between the ages of 25 and 33 were least sensitive (they get more intense guilt as they hit middle age.) Researcher Itziar Etxebarria suggested in The Telegraph that the findings are because of women's social conditioning. "This is caused by certain educational practices, which demand more of females, and which are sometimes still in use despite belief to the contrary," she said. What do you think—would you say you feel guiltier than the men you know?
